Dyakonov Waves in Biaxial Anisotropic Crystals

We present the general analytical theory for Dyakonov surface waves at the interface of a biaxial anisotropic dielectric with an isotropic medium. We demonstrate that these surface waves can be divided into todo distinct classes, with qualitatively different spatial behavior. We obtain explicit expressions for the Dyakonov waves dispersion and the parameter range for their existence.
